Are there any side effects to the raw food diet?


When first starting out on any diet, you, of course, may see side effects—especially in the first few weeks, since your body is going through adjustment periods. Your body will need to discipline itself as well as detox anything you may have consumed prior to the diet.
Because your body was used to certain foods, it will not want to cooperate with a new diet; however, discipline, control, and commitment can help you achieve these goals.
Some side effects you may experience on the raw food diet may be:
* Headaches: these are very common when changing your eating habits.
* You may feel nauseous from time to time; this may be from the detoxing process.
* You may battle mild depression or even agitation and crankiness.
All of these side effects are temporary and will cease in due time. Again, your body needs time to adjust to a new way of living, especially when on the raw food diet. It may be advisable to communicate with someone who has experienced these types of changes when going on a diet.
